Join us on Sunday, February 22, at 3:00 PM, for a free concert by the Sirotin-Chang Duo.The husband-and-wife duo, violinist PETER SIROTIN, and pianist YA-TING CHANG, began their artistic collaboration at Peabody Conservatory of Johns Hopkins University in 1997 when they co-founded the Mendelssohn Piano Trio, with which they performed over 600 concerts in US, Europe and Asia, as well as recorded 15 CDs including the complete Haydn piano trios for Centaur Records. Their recordings have received critical acclaim and can be heard on many major classical radio stations in the U.S. including NPR’s Performance Today, as well as WETA's Front Row Washington. Sirotin and Chang gave a world premiere of Ching-Ju Shih's Double Concerto for Violin and Piano at the National Concert Hall in Taipei, Taiwan, as well as a world premiere of Jeremy Gill's Duo for Violin and Piano.
Critics have described their performances as “impressive,” "stylistically refined" and "electrifying." Individually, Sirotin and Chang appeared as soloists with ensembles ranging from Kharkiv Philharmonic to Hong Kong Chamber Orchestra and have collaborated in performance with world-renowned artists such as violinist Earl Carlyss, former member of the Juilliard String Quartet, pianist, Ann Schein, cellist Ronald Leonard and guitarist Jason Vieaux. The couple has given masterclasses in the U.S. and abroad and have also served as adjudicators in competitions.
Since 2011, as co-directors of Market Square Concerts in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, Sirotin and Chang presented over a hundred performances featuring artists ranging from Midori and Emerson Quartet to Third Coast Percussion and Limmie Pulliam, as well as developed an educational outreach program “Soundscape” reaching thousands of K-12 age children in Central PA annually. In 2023, the couple received an Arts Award for distinguished service to the arts in the Capital Region.
This event is sponsored by the St. Luke's Friends of Music, with additional support provided by the Harrisburg Symphony Orchestra. A freewill offering will be taken.
